What is Vocabulary?
Vocabulary is language development, which is inextricably linked to reading success (Biemiller, 1999), and it is an important predictor of reading comprehension. Merely teaching the definition of new words is not enough to imporove comprehension when students encounter these words in the future, but it should be coupled with contextual information as well. Definitional and conceptual information of words provides the whole picture of the word.
